Out Of Character
- Admin's say is final. Please respect this.
- You must be 13 or over in order to join.
- No hardcore swearing. The odd curse out of frustration is acceptable, but nothing of that manner is to be directed to another member. This includes the cbox.
- No racist, sexist or discriminatory remarks.
- No chat speak. This is a literate RPG, I think we can make the effort when out of character.
- Please, use real images for your characters, which you can manipulate, but no drawings or anime pictures etc.
- Signature Images must be no larger than 550 wide px, so the board is not stretched.
- In post Images cannot be wider than 550px, but may be as high as you wish, as long as you don't go over board.
- If there is a template, use it. You may add to a template, but do not under any circumstances leave parts unfilled. If it does not apply to you, simply put n/a where the response would be.
- Please encourage a friendly and helpful atmosphere! Welcome new members, make friends, and most importantly - have fun!
- Things that happen Out Of Character and In Character are just that. If a character attacks one of your characters and called it a filthy whore that does not mean they think you personally are one. If you had a fight in the cbox don't take it to a thread
- There is a warning system and it will be used. As it should be obvious you can't break rules , no matter what title or rank you may have.
In Character
- Admins say is final. Please respect this.
- No Power Play or God Moding. If you don't know what these are, this rp is probably too advanced for you.
- No mega playing - you know something that your character hasn't been told. Such as past experiences other characters have had, etc.
- Swearing is allowed, just don't swear every second word.
- Punctuation and spelling must be correct. There is a spell check. There is no excuse for posts to be littered with literary errors. An odd slip up is okay, just don't expect it to save you every time.
- If you intend to kill, rape, seriously injure, or anything else along those lines, another character, you MUST have their permission first.
- Limited Liquid time is now in place in this site, which means you have the freedom of Liquid time, to be in more threads than one at a time. Don't let things get out of control.
- Do not have the majority of the post as dialogue. Be descriptive.
- Do not quote other members dialogue to fill up your post.
In Character
- mares -
- Mares may NOT own land
- They can fight for lead mare or beta mare
- Mares must follow all the laws of their stallion's land. A stallion can punish a mare in {almost} any way that he wants to
- They can escape the land with permission of the player who's stallion owns the land. Other wise they may not leave unless otherwise stated {or not stated} in the stallion's rules
- Fillies can be bred at the age of three, the only exceptions can be when she is force bred at the age of two. No younger.
- We do not have seasons here at the Phoenixx; only weather changes. This means that mares are able to be bred year round. Please be responsible with this.
- stallions -
- The only stallions allowed to force claim are those who belong to the north. If another alliances mare wanders into northern land they are fair game to that stallion.
- To claim a land stallions must first start a harem. They must have four mares before they are allowed to claim a land.
- Stallions may own land, they might fight for land, or take it from someone who has no been active in that land. Your claim must be approved by a staff member
- Stallions may make the rules of their land, but if you honestly have something that the staff does think is to extreme or are well none acceptable we will ask you to change it
- Colts may breed at age two.
- Stallions may do just about anything to the mares in their herd, including giving out ranks.
- They may sneak or fight for mares. Though 'sneaking' you must have permission of the player of the stallion who owns her.
- You may not go into a claiming thread and just claim a mare who is being claimed. And you may not just wander into a post and randomly claim and mare while she is in her home.
- Stallions may trade with one another. Trading could be for example trading a filly of theirs for a mare they would like in the herd. Though you must of course have an agreement with the other player.
Character Creation
- Please follow the guidelines set for the species!
- Generally Southerns are all light horses. Most southerns reject all drafts because of the northerns. East is always more drafty horses and west always more light. Northerns are almost always draft horses because of the harsh conditions but from time to time light horses are in the alliance. Just like drafts in the South they are normally not treated with much kindness.
- Alright, if a character has the same 'power' as yours, and they are the same size then yes, they are just as strong as you. No ones horse is the 'most powerful' of them all. Everyone has a weakness
- No horse under the age of six months may be created. Characters do not die of age here. Horses may go on living for a long time.
- You may NOT go back and edit your horse's bio. It will stay that way, period. You can change it as many times as you would like for the most part as long as it has not been accepted yet.
- Humans have been dead for a very long time. No horse has seen a human or been around them for well hundreds of years. Obviously, none of the horses created will have seen them. Every horse is wild, and always has been!
- Powers, horses are allowed one main power and one power from their species page.
- You are limited to, two telepaths, and one spirit user. The others have to be born {To make another telepath{and or spirit users}, it must be born, and both parents must have telepathy {or be spirit users} This is to keep this gift rare}
- There is no character limit as long as they stay active
- Your horse may have scars, injuries, strange markings, but don't go over board with the markings and so on. Birthmarks are also allowed
- Blind horses are allowed, but deaf horses are not allowed. So, if you have a blind horse, there is no changing it.
- NO Albinos are allowed.
- The chance of wings is to be used by the staff. If you put yes that you would like wings staff will do a roll to determind whether or not you get them
Breeding & Foaling
- Foal stats! Foal stats will be posted at any time after the breeding. Then you will have to wait twelve days. A staff member will do a coin toss {telling you whether it's a colt or filly} and then make up it's genetics. So say you have a dark bay horse with no markings, and a black horse with two back socks, the foal might be either black, bay, or dark bay. Depending on if it's a second generation or not. And can have any parent markings or even grandparents markings.
- Foals age somewhat differently then other horses here on Phoenixx under they are two years old. Foals will age every two weeks until they are two years old. Other horses age on a 4 month by 4 month basis. Make sure you remember this.
- Breeding age here is a little different; we allow breeding at two. Now this can either be good or bad. If bred at two the mare has a chance for illness or death and so does the foal. But at the same token it could also make the foal more powerful. Maybe they will get an extra power or maybe one from a different species. Maybe you will be allowed to choose that power. It is the same for colts although the foal may only have a main power versus a species power as well or maybe they will be sickly. It's really a gamble. At three isn't considered safe and none of the above will happen.
- Force breeding, though terrible, does happen. This is an everyday thing in the northern's land, and a act punishable by death in the southern's land. While in the eastern and western lands there are very few rules about anything, but it is still frowned upon., you MUST ask the other player before you do this to their character.
- Your foal stats cannot be changed. Even if you don't like it. You will have to deal with it and cannot just kill the foal for NO reason at all. Staff, even if they do their own stats, may NOT have everything they want. So birth defects might happen
- Miscarriages happen.Do NOT do this every time your horse has a foal from a stallion you don't like. If you don't like them, to damn bad.
- Powers are passed down, and random when a foal is born. For example, Telepaths and Spirit Users can only be reproduced between two of the same power, or one of each power. The password is 'admin changed '. While a telepath and a speed horse will be able to have a speed or extra strength foal. While a spirit user and a extra strength horse could have a extra strength or even a healer. So it's really a random chance thing.
- Foals can choose a different alliance then there parents. A foal may be born to two eastern parents, but end up being a northern. A foal may be born a southern and then end up becoming a western. It just depends.
- When a hybrid foal is bred it will have a different roll of the dice then other horses. The chance of wings will be added up and divided by two to get the chance of wings. Then the foal will be given one main power and one power from each of it's parent's species.
- When it comes to crossing between Alliances there are some rules. Southerns and Northerns are forbidden to have foals together. Southerns may breed with Westerns, Northerns may breed with Easterns, Easterns and Westerns may breed as well. Although the foal MUST choose one Alliance.
